I’m getting sick of all the history and facts,
I’m going to sail a boat and never coming back.
I’m going to trash the Pope and bury his career,
And sail this boat into the Southern Hemisphere…

“I am the one you saw today, who fell
Senseless before you, hearing a certain bell:
A bell that broke great memories in my brain.
I am the one who passed unnoticed before you,
Invisible, in a cloud of secret pain.”
